It was pitch dark with no lights and no human beings in sight, but Chu Tian definitely heard it right. He heard the faint sound of iron armor scraping.
Yazhou is a borderland state, and the equipment of the state soldiers is very crude. The state soldiers stationed at the city gate only have a set of battle clothes, a waist knife, and a wooden spear. Only the governor of the prefecture has 800 elite soldiers wearing iron armor, and the four leading military captains each have 300 armored soldiers. The entire Yazhou has only 2,000 sets of armor.
On weekdays, these armored elites are close guards who protect their own chief officers, and they will not show their faces easily.
Whose family does this armored elite on the city gate tower belong to? The governor of Yizhou wants to change his career to become a bandit? Or are the other captains trying to fish in troubled waters? Chu Tian grinned. The school captain Wang Qi had just been massacred because of the crime of "treason". Any of the remaining three school captains might take action!
"Hee hee" with a smile, Chu Tian took out two large ingots of twenty-two pieces of silver from his sleeves, and stuffed them forcefully into the hands of the two hundred-person majors guarding the city gate: "Two brothers, please brothers Drink tea, haha, another day, I’ll send you my filial piety!”
The two small schools with a hundred people weighed the large amounts of money in their hands. On ordinary days, they suddenly got such two ingots of silver, which was almost half a month's salary for the soldiers of the hundred states under their command. They had already been surrounded by Chu. God is so kind.
But today, two small schools with a hundred people put away their money, and it was very difficult to squeeze out a few smiles.
They scolded Chu Tian bloody in their hearts. He was such a stingy Chu stall. There was a full fifteen thousand taels of red gold in the carriage behind him. You didn't give a hundred and eighty taels to share the profits with your brothers. Run
This news had already spread out of Yizhou City before noon. You are such a stingy and stingy guy, you deserve to die!
No one among the state soldiers and patrolmen spoke, they just stared at the carriage behind Chu Tian with piercing eyes. None of the patrolmen who were most familiar with Chu Tian on weekdays came up to them. Everyone's eyes were shining with a faint golden light, and everyone's hearts were filled with these red gold.
If the gold was in Chu's hands or in Ling's fleet, no one in the entire Yazhou would dare to think about it.
However, these golds ended up in Chu Tian’s hands. Who is Chu Tian? A mere fish stall in the Baimangjiang River has a certain prestige in the market, but in the eyes of many self-proclaimed masters, scare, a mere fish stall is a pig or dog that can be easily killed!
For such a despicable person, do you deserve to earn these fifteen thousand taels of gold? Do you dare to leave Yizhou City with this gold
The sound of hoofbeats suddenly sounded, and the sound of hoofbeats with a strange rhythm broke the strange and stiff atmosphere at the city gate. Several patrolmen and dozens of state soldiers shivered, and they all moved towards the direction where the hoofbeats came from. Looked over.
A row of seven or eight large lanterns with angry glazed tiles emitted bright light, illuminating an area of seven or eight feet in diameter.
Under the bright light of the oil lamp, an extraordinary white horse came to the city gate with slow steps, like a stream of wind. An unusually clear voice came from the horseback: "May I ask, is this the city of Yizhou where Yishan is located?"
Everyone's eyes were attracted by this magnificent white horse.
This white horse is much bigger than the old yellow wolf under Chu Tian's seat. It is at least two feet long from head to tail, and also one foot high from feet to shoulders. Its white fur is like a top-quality satin, and it is extremely soft and smooth. The wind blows.
What’s even more miraculous is that there are two three-foot-long golden horns on the top of the head of this white horse. Under the light, the golden horns are shining and dazzling. This white horse actually has the blood of a dragon, and looking at the momentum of these golden horns, Its dragon bloodline is quite strong.
The person who just asked the question was a handsome young man wearing purple clothes sitting on the back of a white horse.
Whether it was Chu Tian, the patrolmen at the city gate, the state soldiers, or even the people hiding in the dark city gate building, they all felt their hearts stagnate when they suddenly saw the face of the young man in purple. It was like being punched in the face.
How could there be such a person in this world? How could she be born so beautiful
But I don’t know how to describe this young man’s face. It is like a Nine-Dragon Jade carved from a piece of pure and flawless white jade. The whole body is shining with moist precious light. It is perfect but noble. A cloud of precious aura surrounds him. From his whole body, everyone could clearly see his face, but in the blink of an eye, they couldn't remember exactly what he looked like!
Chu Tian has seen many powerful people before, but he has never seen such a wonderful person!
This young man just sat on the horse and glanced at everyone indifferently. It was like a god sitting on his throne in the clouds above the nine heavens, glancing at all living beings in this world in a lonely, cold and ordinary way. Take a look.
Seeing such a look from this young man, Chu Tian felt ashamed of himself. He was like a pool of stinking black water, and this young man was like an extremely clean divine lotus. Their identities were so different that they should not coexist in the world at all.
"Monster!" Chu Tian yelled in his heart: "Little girls in Yizhou City, you are going to be robbed! Scared, if this pretty boy enters Yizhou City, all those young men, scholars and talents will have to jump in the Baimang River! Yes! You are such a noob, how can those little ladies care about you?"
Chu Tian even noticed that the young man in purple seemed to have a special liking for purple. He actually wore four shiny purple jade rings on the five fingers of his left hand. Chu Tian had received rigorous training since childhood and could easily identify more than 90% of the materials in the world. With his eyesight, he actually couldn't tell which type of jade material these four purple jade rings belonged to.
In particular, there is a huge purple jade ring on the left thumb of the young man in purple. The colorful ring finger has dense cloud patterns tattooed on it, which is exquisite. However, Chu Tian instinctively learned from these four purple jade rings and the huge purple ring. Jade Ring felt a strong sense of danger on his finger.
There is also a purple jade flute more than three feet long hanging on the young man's waist. Several exquisite bamboo leaves and delicate plum blossoms are carved on the long flute. The craftsmanship is also exquisite. Under the light, the jade flute is wrapped around it. A ball of purple air three inches thick, it can be seen that this jade flute is definitely a treasure.
There was a sound of hoofbeats, and several lanterns came closer.
They were seven tall mules with extraordinary horses and white hair. On the first mule, a woman who seemed to be about thirty years old had lightning-like eyes and looked at the people at the city gate fiercely. Although this woman was a little older, she had a beautiful appearance and an outstanding temperament. She was also dressed in purple and looked like an immortal from the nine heavens. Under her aura, no one dared to look at her.
Sitting on the six big mules behind them were six tall, expressionless men with breaths as thick and powerful as mountains. Under the illumination of the light, the skins of the six big men reflected a faint cold light. At first glance, they thought they were skins made of metal.
What a wonderful person, what a wonderful follower.
Chu Tian coughed lightly, and smiled and held his hands up to the young man in purple: "Sir, this is the city of Yizhou. You came to Yishan Academy to study, right? Yeah, that's not right, Yishan Academy can't accommodate you. Such a wonderful person, you are here to travel and see the scenery!”
Crossing his hands, Chu Tian smiled and led the large group of carriages out of the city gate. He turned back to the young man in purple and said with a smile: "Hurry up and enter the city. The city gate is about to be closed. If you can't enter the city, what's wrong with you?" It’s not peaceful at night, so it’s better not to camp in the wilderness!”
Chu Tian led the people away with a smile on his face. The young man in purple looked at him expressionlessly and nodded gently: "It's interesting!"
